I don't recall TNG ever going to warp 10. I have a TNG manual at home if you want exact numbers on stuff. What about stuff from the movies.

The Voyage Home had them slingshot around the sun to reach warp 10, I think. Warp 10 on TOS was regularly exceeded in TNG, so that must be out.

Then there is the trip to the center of the galaxy in just a few weeks.... We'll just pretend that didn't happen, for the sake of our sanity (or whatever it's been replaced with)

Are you talking about when the traveller accerated the Enterprise into a whole other gaalxy? That's about Warp 9.9999999996. Good thing they were in the carpool lane.

Um...Well, yours was first. You could always just cross-qoute what I stuck in my thread, then we go from there, or something.

LOL you know what's funny while you guys talk about the whole ST consistancy thing is the fact that SAAB was only in the year 2068 and yet we had interstellar colonies and Carriers with a crew of 15,000 and the UN was actually EFFECTIVE (OMG WOW) and had it's own military. And we had space battleships (which we only saw in passing sadly) and other cool stuff like that. Anyone think that's even possible in only 60 years?

Well bear in mind Starfleet is the organisation that has/will promote Janeway and Riker to Admiral. If they're doing the same thing on the technical side it's no surprise the scales keep changing, there are only morons in charge.

They went to Warp 13 in the final espisode. You have to think of warp speed as a constant revision of the maximum speed chart. Instead of calling it transwarp, they opted to call it Warp 11, 12, 13 and so on.

The science of Star Trek is VERY inconsistant and annoying as all hell.

Ah, yes, forgot about the last episode. Very disapointing.
